    When bookie Duke Bradley reluctantly accepts the deed to his friend Frank Clayton's horse farm out of fondness for him, he takes on far more than he ever expected! At the height of an important race -- just after his daughter Carol (Jean Harlow) returns from a long stay in Europe -- Frank Clayton dies of a heart attack. Duke (Clark Gable) offers to forgive the debt. Carol's fiancé, millionaire Hartley Madison (Walter Pidgeon), offers to cover the debt, but Carol vows to repay the loan to Duke herself before she marries, through her own talent as a race handicapper. Although frequently at odds, Duke and Carol fall in love as they travel from track to track on the "racing special" train.
